Does anyone ever click on that tiny About link at the bottom of every page? I don't, and I almost missed my own promotion!
On August 8th, I threw aside my umbrella to completely immerse myself in the rain as the new VP of Product Development. It "only" took 15 days for me to blog about it – as you might've noticed, we've been in torrential-downpour-mode for the last few weeks!
I was an independent contractor for several years. The hours were great, the pay was fantastic, and I got to take epic 2 hours lunches. But nothing in life is more consistent than change, and that's what happened when I met the ActiveRain team and the incredibly supportive community. I knew that I couldn't be the "hired gun" anymore — I wanted to make a real difference, and now I've been afforded that opportunity.
I'm done patting myself on the back. After finishing dinner at a Chinese restaurant, my fortune cookie read "Exciting times ahead for ActiveRain". Fake story, but an honest sentiment. The next few months are going to be fun, and there's nowhere I'd rather be!
